Hey,
the whole idea has just got out of hand especially in spam, there has been announcements about people abusing it, yet people still do it.
The people who are going to go against me are those who either love power or those who are actually doing it.
Why do VIP members need to close threads?
because its a feature that we get for having it, i dont think it should be remove
and i dont do it/care for power
but its a nice feature to have
i thought you're allowed to close your own thread, but not allowed to re-open it once it's closed - which then is classed as abusing powers?
but yh i think it's fine as not that many people abuse the feature really.
Taken from garion's point here:

If you want to just close your thread, that's fine. Go for it! Your reasoning for it has nothing to do with me. Perhaps I didn't word that bit properly, I'll change it slightly in a sec. If lots of people are arguing in your thread then feel free to close it. HOWEVER you should not post something saying "CLOSING DUE TO ARGUMENTS / SWEARING / RULE BREAKING" or "CLOSING FOR A COOLING OFF PERIOD ;l" because this is acting as a Moderator and such behaviour is not allowed. The reason we're being strict on that is because it is interfering with Moderation and our ability to deal with the members causing trouble that lead to the closure of those threads. Members should be reporting posts, not taking matters into their own hands.

Yeah I think so, like when moderators close threads and then reopen them to try and prevent arguing, members doing that is abusing their powers.Quote:

no just two members lol, and you're allowed to re-open it i think as long as you closed it and not a mod
ahh sure why don't you's just give us access to the forum cpanel to change our name or maybe give us perms to post in the announcements, you know we don't need the features but you might aswell chuck them in to seem like people are getting more to what they pay for.
because if we ask a question and its answered and we wanna close it we can
Yeah giving you access to the cpanel is almost like being able to open and close threads.Quote:
